Most abstract artists have the ability to draw a perfectly rendered rose or a realistic portrait, but Viswam chooses not to. Instead he expresses his creativity by offering a visual experience that is more free and unencumbered by the weight of objects.
Viswam’s inspiration for his art is rooted in the forces of nature, albeit translated into abstract forms while retaining a connection to perceived imagery. His pieces vividly depict various natural phenomena such as skyscapes, landscapes, wind turbulence, and waves. These compositions evoke a serene day dream - like quality, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in their contemplation.
His style evolves around the strategic placement of colors in his role as an Abstract Artist. One dominant hue takes center stage on the canvas, serving to highlight various elements. Each color is imbued with a profound meaning, contributing to the overall representation. His skillful use of hues, encompassing different tints and shades, is a captivating testament to his mastery of blending colors seamlessly. Cool shades evoke images of the deep blue sky, warmer tones reflect the brilliance of the sun and the warmth of sunsets.
The artist employs sweeping brushstrokes, maneuvering diagonally, vertically, and horizontally, mirroring the very movements of the elements he seeks to capture. The emotional resonance of nature finds a parallel in the artist's work. Much like the way landscapes can evoke moods, his chosen colors have the power evoke emotions, whether it be happiness, sadness, or elevation. The artist's abstract creations stand as vibrant bridges between the beauty of the natural world and the evocative potential of color. The deliberate arrangement of hues, coupled with dynamic brushwork, crafts an art form that is both visually arresting and emotionally resonant.
Viswam’s canvasses are an experience. One must let go of the need to put things into words, and let the artwork converse.
